See https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/1563 +- In an effort to combat a common issue it is now a + :class:`~pyramid.exceptions.ConfigurationError` to register a view + callable that is actually an unbound method when using the default view + mapper. As unbound methods do not exist in PY3+ possible errors are detected + by checking if the first parameter is named ``self``. For example, + `config.add_view(ViewClass.some_method, ...)` should actually be + `config.add_view(ViewClass, attr='some_method)'`. This was always an issue + in Pyramid on PY2 but the backward incompatibility is on PY3+ where you may + not use a function with the first parameter named ``self``.
